>I can't wait to visit China. Their cities are so full of history and buildings older than most countrie--Meanwhile 99% of Chinese cities.
>they tore down Kowloon before I could visit and do hoodrat shit in the slums>This shit exists I don't wanna live anymore
>>221161777They put on one hell of a LED show at night thoughever
>>221161787LED maxxing
>I just love how much they blend their ancient history with modern life---ACK
>>221161787>The spiritual successor to Kowloon was a warehouse arcade in Japan. It got torn down too by the property owner to develop housing slopKill me. Also fuck your gay china hate baiting
>>221161754In revolution of Mao they destroyed tons of documents of traditional medicine chinese, acunpunture, thaoism.... What de have today preserved was what taiwanese migrants could get in their hands of old books and statues and sent it in a airplane to Taipei
>>221161828True, chinese culture is to china what native American culture is to the US
>>221161787seething LEDlet
>>221161828Maoist young guard was really generalist and did right things by the wrong motives... In their fight for an atheist marxist culture, they shooted in the face some old Wang sailor of books talking about poetry traditional haikai, as if was the same shit as some pedophile tibetan sect that tortured farmers for fun
>>221161754Yes, retardedThey had 350 million people in the XIXHow would they acomodate the 1 billion prople extra in those old houses made of wood and papel?
>>221161754why do westoids start glazing China so much lately?I know America sucks but that doesn't mean China is good. If China is good their birth rate would not be abysmal and half of their youth wouldn't be laying flat
>>221161987America is and has been bankrupt in every way but financially, and even that is becoming a stretch. People are starting to feel the pressure
>>221161754why didn't you let him finish his sentence, you rude mother fucker?
>>221161955>how would they accommodateMajority of Chinese cities have a lower population density than Greater LA. Chinese cities look the way it does because high land price incentivized developers to build tall to maximize units. It has nothing to do with their population size. Before you mention how Chongqing is a city of 30 million, its also bigger than fkin south carolina.
>>221162001and that makes China good somehow?
>>221161987>>221162001Well, let me give a point to poor people of third world in a forum of shemales that if USA is bad let's search in Maps that bankruptiness
>>221162043They're looking for a way out and open to propaganda. Putting other places on a pedestal. There's a significant amount of Americans that think Russia is better as well. In either place they would get eaten alive by the local culture. They're not immunized against the inherent problems and over exaggerate the advantages. Not that hard to understand
>>221162055City of Moscow, municipality in middle of where Arkansas. Is worst than such potencies like China or Vietnam?
>>221162110>>221162055You need to work on your English. Nobody has any idea what the fuck you are saying

>>221161754america doesn't have any old cities
>>221162327>what is main street, USA
>>221161987>their birth rate would not be abysmal and half of their youth wouldn't be laying flatthats the entire world minus africa (but they're catching up anyways)
>>221161754China has been continuously inhabited for thousands of years, if you try to preserve everything historical there, you'd have nowhere to build anything new. The cultural revolution was a slight oopsie though.
>>221162394>continuously inhabited for thousands of yearsso did the rest of the planet?
>>221162413according to americans there was no one living in the us before the 16th centuryit was all virgin land ripe for the takin'
>>221161777i went to the park that now stands where kowloon was, it was a lot smaller than i expected it to be which really drove home the point of what a crazy place kowloon must have been when it was still around. that said there's still plenty of dystopian urban slum shit in hong kong for you to enjoy - nothing on the scale of kowloon ofc but it's there
>>221162394Europe has also been continuously inhabited for thousands of years, and it doesn’t look like OP lol
>>221162001>bankrupt in every way but financiallyNew broke nigga cope just dropped
>>221162434There were no humans capable of anything close to civilization that’s true
>>221162439>just found out luxembourg city has a higher population density than guangzhou in OP's pic
>>221161987>If China is good their birth rate would not be abysmal Ah yes because africa is a paradise because their birthrates are through the roofActual 70Iq comment

>>221162480>the mighty city of Canton, mogged by a speck of dust between Belgium and GermanyChinese communism in shambles right now
>>221162487>low birth rate bad meaning high birth rate goodwow an actual retard here. Birth rate cannot tell you if a place is good but very low birth rate can tell you that a place is bad to live for the average person >>221162368China's fertility rate is 1, for US it's 1.8. One is bad, the other is extinction level
>>221162571What colors are your LEDs?
>>221161987>if taiwan is so good then why do they have the lowest fertility rate in the world? bet you don't make those arguments for those island chnks, viet putaaussi le post d'op est clairement sarcastique. tu dois vraiment être un gouk attardé pour ne pas le voir, le petit lèche-cul d'amerloques
>>221162626don't put words in my mouth, no east asian country is a good place to live.
>>221161828Mao destroyed temples honouring Confucius, arrested Confucian scholars, and destroyed all records of Confucian rituals. A decade after Mao died, they tried to restore the Shidian, the annual ritual honouring Confucius, but everything was thoroughly destroyed and practitioners all dead. They eventually restored the ritual in the 90s, but it's a copy of the ritual as performed by South Koreans, which was an abbreviated and scaled-down version of the one performed in China. Before Mao curb-stomped it, shidian was performed every year without fail for over 2,100 years.
>>221162773Chinese culture is effectively extinct in China, this is why they have to improvise on Korea, Japanese or even Vietnamese customs, while keeping the nationalistic egotism.
>>221161828Ur welcome
>>221162196Japan didn't make it illegal to celebrate holidays or destroy 97% of all temples and historical artifacts
>>221162889They're on so many layers of revival. The nationalists wanted to revive true Chinese culture from Manchu oppression in Qing, then 40 years later were gaped by the Japanese (which Mao thanked for putting him into power), and then came back again through CIA fronts like Fulan Gong trying to resurrect the 'real' China from the evils of Marxism and restore their true national government. Those tacky culture shows they put on are almost always funded via US tax dollars or UNESCO.
>>221161777They took this from you
I was just in China and Taiwan a few months ago.China was a soul-less depressing dystopia while Taiwan was a happy soulful paradise.Pic related was what fucking SHANGHAI looked like outside of the city center and it was also FILLED with scammers and horrible smog. This is supposedly the pinnacle of China according to wumaos.
>>221161987many chinese propagandistthe diaspora too is especially susceptible to thisbut in recent years, mainland ultra-nationalist chinese monkeys have been monkeying around too much, many diaspora are starting to hate themthey focus on EVs, robots to show they are "technologically advanced", but their country has nothing of substance.as the iran war goes on, and they have to beg americans for oil, I believe they will enter a second century of humiliation
>>221163057>but their country has nothing of substance>tf>tp
>>221161987It's a zoomer phenomenon that started on Tiktok. It's now spread to tankies and leftists who think China is doing well because it's socialist o algo while America is a hellhole because it's not.
>>221161987>>221163078None of them have been to China to see it for themselves. It is easy to think a country is good when all you do is see tiktok edits of it.
>>221163086funny how their definition of good is some rat cage apartment with colorful LEDs on it.
>>221163086>None of them have been to China This goes without saying lolEven ignoring politicization and propaganda, they say things that are just factually wrong in an incredibly obvious way. Like I saw some guy saying Chinese streets are so clean, cleaner than Japan, and nobody uses squat toilets anymore. Not even Chinese nationalist wumaos would say that lol
>>221163116Even Japan and Taiwan still use some squat toilets. Why would they be ashamed of it?
>>221161754went there for the first time in my life last month,women would wear bizarre makeup, I couldn't believe it was real and rudely laughed in their faces a couple timespeople would enter the train in a rush, before passengers de-boarded the trainand there were many motorcycles on the sidewalks, it was pretty dangerous, and they didn't wait for the traffic lights
>>221161754well obviously I would go to the touristy areas and not some random city in that scenario
>>221163127They are even ashamed of buildings shorter than 10 stories. Because their metric of advancement is based on size apparently. They will look at a picture of some european town and tell you how they are backward.
>>221163145This is what I hate most about Asia. They view big cities are advanced and small towns are not. But in Europe/America (and Japan) small towns are just as developed as big cities. Cramming everyone into a bug city isn't the solution.
>>221163164They have to desu, otherwise they can't justify their high real estate price which is 90% of their investment.
>>221163057>as the iran war goes on, and they have to beg americans for oil,literally all other chnks including you and taiwan as well as other amerimutt slaves like jp&sk&filipinos are all way more dependent on gulf energy than china is
>>221163462we are already buying oil from the USyou could also base your national security and foreign policy off whether the americans will sell you oil, and buy oil from them?for the rest of us who doesn't care who wins, our strategic options are much more free
>>221161754what do you expect there to be in a relatively new residental area? If you want to see historical stuff you should go to the old quarter of the city, like in any city in the world
>>221163575Lol, I would rather live in Brazil than China, only for the sexy men, but China is no doubt safer and richer than anywhere in LatAm.
>>221163086China literally stuck a goldmine through TikTokThey’ve effectively weaponized an algorithm to turn Americans and the rest of the world against AmericaThey’ve managed to paint India as some sub human wasteland, worse than the most impoverished parts of SubSaharan Africa, just to fuel their own narrative of superiorityThey are rotting people’s brains from the inside out, forcing them to internalize anti-Jew and anti-Islamic propaganda, turning us into a world of hateful, divided tribalistsEven Europeans, who used to have some pride, are now convinced that "Europe has fallen" because of the constant stream of curated filth they see on their screensand all ts just to gaslight the entire planet into believing that living under the CCP is somehow better than the EU, the UK, or the USA ??
>>221163649They didn't. It's just judeo-liberalism 5 eyes at war with its own people and gaslighting you to think it's china. China has its own stuff. The USA took TikTok's servers onto their own soil a long, long time ago. It's the USA sowing discord amongst its own.
>>221163649>>221163657I doubt it, but I do see AI generated english comments that praise china constantly, and belittle other countries
>>221163649Europe has genuinely fallen. Europeans see this with their own eyes every time they step outside. The only people telling me the west is good are browns who've never left their third world country. Constant propaganda from Western governments is used to demoralize the local people, and create their ideal new world order. The goal is a deracinated fractured population of stateless mutts who will never be able to organize or dissent against the elite and the destruction of the nation state. This is a clearly established goal of the European Union, but for the UK, USA, Australia too etc. Anti-Jew is simply noticing cause and effect. China on the other hand, is a country that is not owned by Jewish elites and has just been quietly became a global hegemon.
>>221163696The number of wumao seems to be little relative to the number of Kremlin bots, USA AFB mutts, 77th brigade, CSIS, JIDF etc. I never see them outside of obvious pro-China propagandists.
>>221163462>The biggest oil importer on earth is reliant on the middle east for oilWhat a retarded post
>>221163649>China literally stuck a goldmine through TikTokThat's America's now. Complete American victory. Now it will give people Israel propaganda instead
>>221161754>>221161828Capitalism destroyed every city in the American continent
>>221163075>implying that he's wrongChinks have been running propaganda psyops on certain Chinkie Sinkies for years to the point that they have become Mainland Sockpuppets.>>221163086Bretty much.
>>221163816You diapora chinks are no different than white leftist traitors. Singapore is more clean, wealthy, developed than any city in North America or Europe. Self-hating faggot.
>>221163834"not allying yourself with china means you hate yourselves"our city state is better than the west and china, and will continue to be so
>>221163834>Mainlander schizobabble
>>221163866Forgive my fellow leaf, it's Hongcouver posting hours
>>221163086Neither have you. China was very nice when I visited. And even in the countryside it was comfy. Chinese people as a whole are very friendly too. Contrasting to Canada where everyone is an asshole, and you can't go out at night due to the crime. And yet I go on the internet and hear about how it's a utopia filled with friendly white people... (no whites left here)
>>221163086What i hate most about China is the culture of artificiality. See https://youtu.be/fH3869_0GY8They care more about how they appear on the outside rather than what they actually are. This explains their obsession with status, money and materialism.Moreover, they (along with the Japs) are the 2 most fragile people on earth, see pic rel.These things can be seen throughout the Sinoshepre not just in China but looking at the name of this region you can tell where this shit came from.In a way, the Chinese government isn't actually that bad, it's the Chinese culture that is revolting
>>221163866Yeah okay just ignore the fact that Singapore is rich because it's 90%+ Han Chinese. You're no different than a white libtard, pretending as if race and genetics don't matter. Axing your own people is stupid.
>>221162437>>221163022>>221161777akshually, Kowloon is the district on the mainland, on the opposite side of the strait from the Hongkong island.What you have in mind is the Kowloon Walled City
>>221161754Modern Chinese cities are way bigger than their trad counterparts that most of the time, the old part of town is memed as "Changlongzhou Ancient District," and even then it's either reconstructions or complete fabrications.Also most tourists tend to visit either Beijing region or Coastal China, the youngest parts of the country & most hit by the major disasters that went on in the last 100 years. Actual old China is going into the interior like Shaanxi, Anhui, or Henan, etc. ect.. Areas where 90% of Chang history happened. Problem is these are places where nobody gives a fuck about foreign tourists, there's near zero signages in English, and you have to pass by a metricton of dirty ass industrial-rural towns enough to turn-off the casual traveller before reaching the actual heritage sites.Probably the only tourist friendly province in the Chinese interior is Sichuan, and even then its still hostile to inexperience travelers who have no guides or don't speak their language.
>>221163919It's 75% Chinese. It's rich because of the 9% indian carrying the way sar
>>221163919>Yeah okay just ignore the fact that Singapore is rich because it's 90%+ Han ChineseYou know which country has more Chinks than Singapore? China. And China is a shithole compared to Singapore lol.>>221163899>Chinks practice Izzat culture as wellKek.
>>221163919If Singapore is rich because it is 90% Chinese than why is chiba that is 100% Chinese poor?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKcaEj0ilUcidk how you can watch any of these videos and think anything other than>THIS PLACE IS SO COOL
lmfao I'm speaking to Indian chat bots on VPNs. You fuckers should try to measure up to Kenya or Uganda first before trying to shit on first world countries.
>>221163899this, I have always thought that the china government was pragmatic and efficient, but the people in china were insufficientimo, there is cultural pride in their long history, which acts as baggage when moving towards civilization."our civilization is superior to yours, so there is nothing to learn from you, everything outside our country is worse"but then their civilization right now, is just materialism and consumerismEnglish language proficiency is dropping there, because they perceive it as western imperialismThough I am glad, these are things that could be exploited as arbitrage
Taiwan mogs china in almost everythingChinese are ranked to be the most unkind while taiwanese are ranked one of the most friendly.All the supposedly old culture are actually a rebuild that lose its soul and authentity.Your can't connect to your usual website, social media, etc while in china and their payment system is complicated and hard to use for foreignerIf you are looking for employment, taiwan is a much better place. Higher pay and more opportunitiesIf you are looking for wife, taiwan girls are also better. mainland girls are way too materialistic and rotten to the core with feminism
>AIYAAAAAA HOW DALE U SPEAK IRR OF GRORIOUS ZHONGGUO U MUST BE DILTY INDIAN AIYAAAA RONG RIVE THE CCP *Chinese noises*
>>221163968desu what "historical site" anywhere in the world hasn't been reconstructed or hollowed out. Everything in Europe was rebuilt post WW2 and every "500 year old building" has a gift shop. Every samurai castle in japan is a museum + observatory at the top. So long as it's built in traditional style it's good. Actual preserved towns exist in China but it's just ugly stacks of rotting wood with homes not suited for electricity, plumbing, heating etc so it looks shit.
>China>first worldHe's losing it...
>>221164031It is fuckface. What's a bigger joke is Cucknadians pretending this third world shithole of migrants that haven't even been in the country for 5 years, with 0 jobs and 2 million dollar houses is first world.
>China>first worldLmao
>aiyaaaa Canada shithore countly unrike grorious filst wold zhongguo aiyaaaa
>>221164016>>221164084guy, spam has never influenced anythingpeople just think you are obnoxiousdo you think propaganda makes people support them, or hate them?
>>221164043>Canada isn't first world because there's a lot of Chinese immigrants here and inflated property prices>But China is first world
Canadian Chang crashing out
VPN flipping incel on here. Obviously not Canadian either. Canada being a chink colony is a stale 2010 meme.
>>221161754Shenzhen is a recently founded city so obviously it doesn't have a lot of historical stuff or buildings. But it does have some cool skyscrapers like in the image, and I enjoyed my time while I was there.
>>221162055wut?
China is not first world lol
China has an HDI similar to Brazil.
>>221164211Even the "ancient" capitals looks like op's pic in china. All the historical stuff were demolished deliberately like in >>221161805
>>221163968Yunnan is peak tourism destination, but I agree it's not very non-chinese tourists friendly.
China rhymes with vagina
>>221165427That's not entirely true. You will indeed find those high-rise apartment complex in every big cities, but some have preserved parts of their historical features. Beijing saw its walls destroyed but the Forbidden City and some of the neighboring hutong were preserved. Xian kept some of its walls, as does Nanjing.
>>221164014>If you are looking for wife, taiwan girls are also betterT-thank you for the marriage advice
>>221161754Do you expect Chinese cities to look like the forbidden city?
>>221161754end of american empire threads are sad but if it helps them deal with insignificance then godspeed
>affordable housing is bad now!
>>221168539how can one man be so based?
>>221170146Those houses are leased by the government to them for 99 years. So they don't "own" it in a traditional sense.
>>221163462Why you panchos think that not sucking to the US means opening your ass to the enemy power? I saw many of you fall for Russian Today's propaganda a couple of years ago, and now the same thing is happening to you with TikTok.
China is good for the world as they mean more competition against the US monopolies. They are the only ones doing open source AI for example. Probably would not enjoy living there THOUGH
>>221170855I like China because I can't directly buy cheap stuff from them instead of paying local parasites.
>>221171109They have been struggling to implement the European train control system here for a while so at this point I feel like this whole evil geniuses China will take over the world, etc. is completely bullshit and Americans are just afraid of a tiny bit of competition in areas where they had a monopoly since forever. China looks like a developing place with a lot of people that takes advantage of modern tools, I don't understand this whole hysteria around it
>>221161987They been turning the dial on tourism promotion and cool robot vids last few years
Countries are best judged by their shittier areas
>>221171199It's actually some of the very first OG "shit that fell out of Trump's mouth that sort of stuck"
>>221171109Aliexpress hello? And then there's more... In Chicago Aliexpress uses some bootleg zhongguo doordash to ship from the airport to your door so that's Chinese enough for me
>>221171199> I feel like this whole evil geniuses China will take over the world, etc. is completely bullshitDon't you think China has the capacity to become a global hegemon?
>>221174431more like hegemong! lol!
>>221171199Because China won and the rest is just cope.
>>221165841The problem with East Asian old buildings is that they're made of wood which is very vulnerable, so many historical buildings were completely rebuilt in the last century. For example the Yellow Crane Tower at Wuhan was constructed in 1981 at a different location from the original
